Xabi Alonso has shrugged off the opportunity to become Tottenham Hotspur’s permanent coach over the summer.<\/p>\n
Speculation have linked the 41-year old name with the position, but the Leverkusen’s boss has remained firm in his position that he does not plan to move away from his current duties.<\/p>\n
\u201cI’ve been in football for many years, rumours are normal but we still have a lot to achieve.\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat’s why my head is 100 per cent here for the last few months. And my head is also 100 per cent here for next season.\u201d<\/p>\n
Alonso has impressed with Leverkusen, leading the German side to Europa League’s 1\/2 finals and winning 14 out of 30 games in Germany. They currently sit 6th in the standings.<\/p>\n
Spurs are in desperate search of a new manager after sacking both Antonio Conte and Christion Stellini in a space of a month. Julian Nagelsman still remains favorite for the job.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
